Christmas Coffee

Posted on December 20, 2022 10:27 PM by Julie Comment

A big congrats to Heather, the newest Featured Stamper! She has wonderful, growing gallery & I chose THIS card to case. I kept the tall go cup of coffee & used of patterned paper, but I used different dies, stamps, paper, left off the greenery/bow at the bottom & used a leftover red triangle in the corner.

For my card, I die cut parts of the Coffee & the Winter Cocoa & combined them for my tall cup. Stickles was added to the whipped cream on top. I had a triangular piece of crimson paper & added it to the corner of the holly paper then popped up the coffee cup on top. The lg holly was die cut out of white glitter paper & added next to the cup.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Pumpkin Spice Gnomes

A big congrats to Leslie, the newest Featured Stamper (FS821) on Splitcoast! She has a wonderful gallery and after much browsing, I chose THIS card to case. I kept the gnome theme & cute layout, but used different images, dies & colors and made mine a fall card.

For my pumpkin spice gnome card, I stamped, colored and die cut the trio of cute gnomes and pumpkins. The greeting was die cut w/ a stitched circle die & popped up. The white panel was already cut using a deckle rectangle and a large oval cut out of the center. I backed it w/ a larger rust colored rectangle that I ran thru w/ a circle pattern piercing die. The fall paper had just the right colors for my card so I added it behind & attached a few little falling leaves here & there.

These are the Copics I used:

Coffee Cats in Cups

It’s my pleasure to host the Splitcoast Inspiration Challenge (IC800) this week & the site I chose is Design Stack & their Pinterest Boards. I found THIS cute pic & used it for my inspiration.

For my card, I also have a fun & useful tutorial. It’s really simple & I’m a little surprised it took me this long to figure it out. This revelation actually came about because of a little accident & I had an “aha” moment when it happened. My tutorial involves the mirror image little cat on the far left. But the best part is, not only is he a stamped mirror image of the cat on the right, he was also die cut using the same die. So after I colored & die cut the cat on the right & the 3 in the center, I really wanted a mirror image cat. I’ve done the mirror image stamping quite a bit so that part was easy. Since these are clear stamps, I reasoned that the back of a larger clear stamp would be the best choice for my mirror image. I will mention, right off the bat, a Misti is essential to this technique. So here’s what I did: (click on any pic to enlarge)

Up to this point is the normal process for mirror image stamping. The difference is since it’s in the Misti & I didn’t clean off the ink on the original image (that was the accident part), it stamped the image on both sides of the card stock.

This where the “aha” moment kicked in. Since it was stamped using the Misti, the stamped image is exactly in the same spot on both sides. I taped the die to the right (normal) side..the side the die actually fits.

Finished! I did 2 of these to show you the right side & the mirror side. With this little trick it’s now possible to die cut a mirror image. Yay! No fussy cutting! I will mention that I made sure to have a smooth surface (I used the metal shim under mine) for the mirror image (cutting side). Otherwise you’ll have ridges if your cutting plate is well used.

The background was stamped w/ the Color Fuse inks & another coffee set. Here are the Copics I used.
